About this trial

The goal of this study is to determine the effects of lab and home-based technology guidance during movement training post-stroke. The study will compare movement training informed by lab-based technology to training delivered with technology at home. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* How well do lab and home-based technologies help individuals post-stroke improve their movement patterns? * Is there a difference in improvement between the in-lab and at-home training groups? * Which technologies lead to the most improvement?
